Bonnets, Carpeting, Ready-made Clothing. Boots. Shoes. Hosiery.
Gloves, Ribbons,

Lave all been selected with care, purchased at a low price, and as a necessary consequence are
offered lor sale cheap. Our
Groceries, Fish, Salt, <§•<?.,
are also very low, and offer strong inducements to persons in town and country to call and
purchase.
.Since opening our establishment here we think we have fully demonstrated that, as a genera!
thing, we sell as low as the very lowest, IF NOT A LITTLE LOWER. We do not profess to sell
one. nor two, nor three articles at a very low price, but we do profess to eel! EVERYTHING j

erywhere will be the gainers by giving us a call and making their purchases.
For past favors we are duly thankful, aud shall be pleased to wait on all old customers and

quired as being the cheapest store in Lewislowa.

PURR FRESH COD LIVER OlL

A medical profession with such asloiiUhiug efficacy in

Pulmonary Consumption, Scrofula, Chro
nic Rheumatism, Gout, General De
bility, Complaints of the Kid
neys, <SfC., AfC.,
is prepared from the liver of the Cod Fish for medit al
expressly fur our sales.
(Extract from the London Medical Journal )
41 <\ J. 11. Williams, M. I) , F. R. S., Professor of Medi
cine in University College, London, Consulting Physi
cian to t he Hospital for consumption, &c., says : 1 have
prescribed the Oil in above four hundred cases of tuberi u
lous disease of tiie Lungs, in different stages, whi h have
been under my care the last two years and a half. In
the la rife number of cases, 20li out of "231, Its use was fol
lowed by marked and unequivocal improvement, varying
in degree in different cases, from a temporary retarda
tion of (he progress of the disease and a mitigation of dis
tressing sj mploins, up to u more or less complete restor
ation to apparent health.
"The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most of these cases
was very remarkable. Even in a few days the cough
was mitigated, the expectoration diminished in quantity
and opacity, the night sweats ceased, the pulse became
slower, and of better volume, and the appttitc, itesh and
strength were gradually improved.
"In conclusion, 1 repeat that the pure fresh oil from
the Liver of the Cod is more beneficial in Hie treatment
of Pulmonary Consumption than any agent, medicinal,
dietetic or regimenal, that lias yet been employed."
As we have made arrangements to procure the Cod liver
Oil, fresh from head quarters, it can now he had chemically
pure by the single bottle, or in buses of one dozen each.
lis wonderful eliicacy lias induced numerous spurious
imitations. As its success depends entirely on its purity,
too much rare cannot he used HI procuring it genuine.
Kvcru bottle having unit our written signature may be
depended upon us genuine.
Pamphlets containing an analysis of the Oil, with no
tices of it from Medical Journals, will he sent to lluiss
who address ns free of postage.

MONEY MATTERS, TRADE, Ac.
We hare for some weeks past noticed a large

here, purporting to be issued at Delaware City,
by the Delaware City Bank. The Camden (A*,
i J.) Democrat thus notices these bills :
i •' Not a little excitement has been created in
I Delaware City for some days past, by the in
creasing demand upon the Bank recently estab
j lished there for the redemption of its notes It
( appears that this bank is owned by a few specu
lators, who have for some years past mad® va
rious efforts to establish a similar institution in
• the city of Philadelphia. They last year at
